snow-flecked skies.
hail - the annoying white pellets pelted me as i hurried back to the apartment after an hour spent printing notes (for free) in school. and then, a cup of hot chocolate later, i peeked through the blinds.
there it was. a soft flurry of snow lightly falling onto the landscape. finally. i threw on a coat and ran out in my birkenstocks, who cares if it's 0 degrees. ducked inside to layer on after snapping some photos.
t'was a beautiful sight. i stood with arms outstretched, palms to the sky. feeling the slushy snow plop on my hair and cheeks and coat. making footprints and writing my name in the snow. there - it settled like a blanket over the blank surfaces. evoking immutable joy and gleaming eyes.
